If you haven’t been following me on Twitter @writeandrescue or Instagram, you probably aren’t aware that I am headed off to THE pet blogging conference in the world tomorrow.
Blog Paws 2018 is the 10th Anniversary of this amazing conference and the first time I am actually attending. I have wanted to go since 2014, but have never actually been able to swing it. This year, I planned ahead to make it happen!
I can’t wait to meet experts in the pet blogging field, other bloggers and all the amazing brands who will be there. I am looking forward to learning all the tips and tricks to turn my blog into a full time enterprise, and not just an occasional exercise.
I am also terrified. I feel like this is the defining moment guys; like this is when I decide if I can make it as a full time blogger or if it is time to put those dreams away in favor of more lucrative avenues. I am also nervous about traveling, networking, being away from my own fur-babies, etc.
Tonight, I am snuggling with Sneakers as much as possible. I am double checking the cat care directions I am leaving behind. I am doing laundry and making sure everything is properly packed. Tomorrow I get up early, go to work then head home with enough time to grab my suitcase and rush to the airport. Then begins the adventure of a lifetime and three days being way outside my comfort zone. I will be posting all about it on Instagram and Twitter. So scroll over to the right and follow Instagram, or head over to Twitter to keep up to date!
Don’t be nervous. You are going to have a great time. You will feel as if you have found long lost family you never knew you had. This will be my fifth BlogPaws, and I look forward to meeting you. Safe travels, Janet
I hope you have a great time!
